> Please don't lock the proxy settings! There are legitimate reasons to
change them, for example:
> running Tor Browser with a system-wide Tor service, or connecting to a
Unix socket rather than a TCP port.
In such cases one should lock prefs that are baked by consensus: everyone
agrees that fingerprinting protection and first-party isolation should
always be enforced.
